White smoke! New pope has been elected

The Vatican's bells are pealing, and the faithful outside are celebrating. White smoke has emerged from the chimney, showing that the conclave has selected a new pope.

The new pope is expected to appear on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica within an hour, after a church official announces “Habemus Papum” — “We have a pope” — and gives the name of the new pontiff in Latin.
